tybo31316 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Tower in OP at Blanding and Bolton has new antennas installed next to B25/B26. Sprint B41???? https://www.dropbox.com/sc/955jnsa78v9ai7k/AACjauHfiNxc5Qd6p80nernwa 8T8R setup should have a slightly shorter panel and only one RRU. It can be mounted anywhere...top, bottom, middle. That doesn't matter. Robert via Samsung Note 8.0 using Tapatalk Pro This matches that profile. Sent from my Nexus 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N4NXS Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Here are some better photos of the location at Blanding and Constitution. B41 was still not online yet as of Friday. Maybe this week?? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9409.JPG https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9425.JPG Some other towers in Orange Park Sleepy Hollow still only has WiMax along with B25/B26. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9386.JPG Blanding/Parkridge still is at B25 probably due to the protected birds nest (sign on gate indicates Federal Protected) https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9333.JPG Wells Rd is B25/B26 https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9435.JPG I plan on further documenting all sites around Middleburg/Orange Park and the Southside of Jax in the next week or two.

N4NXS Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 (edited) Looking back over my testing. It looks like the Sleepy Hollow location does have B41 Signal GCI TAC Band Location -90 0208A200 8320 B41 Sleepy Hollow Tower -98 0208A201 8320 B41 Sleepy Hollow Tower There are two towers on Sleepy Hollow. According to some of the information I read, Clearwire was on one of the towers and Sprint/Nextel was on the other tower. Here is a photo of the 2nd tower that I assumed is not Sprint. Anyone know more about this location? https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9371.JPG Edited August 25, 2014 by N4NXS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I had more time, I would have busted out my Nikon D800 and 400mm f/2.8 awhile ago. I just don't have the time to tower spot. Awesome job!!

N4NXS Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 The tower by Gateway/FBI has ground mounted radios? Hmm It's part of a transmission line so I'm guessing the less they need to access the top the better for those locations. https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/106286908/IMG_9449.JPG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On that note though clear had some tower locations that sprint should look at keeping in the future. That are not colocated and should be converted to NV gear.

Terrell352 Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 Quite a few band 41 permits in Ocala. Didn't think the treatment would come so fast. Called Sprint and there are 4 sites slated to have installs in the next 3 months. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Called Sprint and there are 4 sites slated to have installs in the next 3 months. What do your B41 permits look like? I just found a bunch of permits for local Sprint sites but it just says "replace existing antenna" etc. Here's some examples.
